October's fabulous fall plants and colors
By Master Gardeners
Tina Burnside
and Brigettt Whipple
Gardeners both love and hate
the arrival of autumn. So many
of us are sorry to see our short
summer growing season come
to an end, particularly if an early
frost has caused us to worry
about our veggies still on the
vines. Others are happy because
we can step back and enjoy the
harvest of fruits, veggies and
flowers that we nurtured all
summer. Most of us appreciate
the frosty mornings because it
brings us the beautiful gold, red
and orange leaves on the aspen,
maple and birch trees, even if
it means a bit of work when we
have to rake them off the
ground.
Want to plant a tree that gives
you shade in the summer and

in re-enactment
WEIPPE, Idaho (AP)-The
re-enactment of the first meet
ing between frontier explorers
Lewis and Clark and the Nez
Perce Indian tribe was played
out in a northern Idaho meadow
with a cast of some 600 specta
tors joining in the commemora
tion of the 200th anniversary
of the historic moment.
The re-enactment was part
of the bicentennial trek of the
Corps of Discovery through
Idaho on their way west, retrac
ing the steps taken two centu
ries ago by Meriwether Lewis
and William Clark.
President Thomas Jefferson
sent the explorers on the 1803
1806 journey to the just-acquired
Louisiana Purchase to
discover what the U.S. had
bought, to learn about the in
habitants, to seek a water route
to the Pacific and to catalogue
the plants, rocks, soils and ani
mals they found.
Recreating what history has
recorded of the Sept. 20, 1805
event, the great-great-great-grandson
of William Clark
topped a grassy hill in a meadow
several miles outside of Weippe.
Hundreds of school children,
local residents and history buffs
had walked the route in advance
of Bud Clark and sat around
the meadow to watch.
Clark rode horseback into
the camp of the descendants of
Watkuweis, the Nez Perce
woman who urged the tribe to
trust Lewis and Clark two cen
turies ago.
produces great fall colors?
Maples have long been favor
ites with their red-orange leaves.
The Acerginnala or Amur Maple
is a great tree for our area. It
grows as a small tree or large
multi-stem shrub and at matu
rity will be about 15-18 feet tall
by 15-18 feet wide. The sum
mer leaves are dark and glossy
green, and they make a lovely
summer shade tree. Plant it in
full sun, for the best fall color.
The tree can also be planted in
part shade. It requires low to
moderate water usage. -
The OSU Extension Service
Master Gardeners final Lunch
and Learn session will be held
on Monday, Oct. 10, from 12
to 1 p.m. in the downstairs 4-H
conference room. Our speakers
will include OSU Master Gar
deners sharing their favorite
garden secrets. We will hear from
Jocelyn Moses of the Warm
Springs Boys and Girls Club
about how her garden grew this
year. We will also plant spring
flowering bulbs and transplant
house plants. Please come join
us.
Here are some October gar
den tips:
Now is the time to prune your
evergreen plants and conifers.
Protect tomatoes andor
pick your green tomatoes before
a heavy frost hits them. You
can ripen them indoors.
Plant daffodils, narcissus
peonies, irises and hyacinths in
the yard for spring bloom. Work
calcium and phosphorus into
the soil below the bulbs at plant
ing time. If deer are not in your
area, tulips and crocuses are also
wonderful spring bulbs.
